Publication Ethics and Malpractice Statement

(based on COPE's Best Practice Guidelines for Journal Editors)

Editors, reviewers and the publisher of Studia Universitas Babes-Bolyai Mathematica try to maintain highest ethical standards in publishing all the research works. However, authors should maintain certain standards and ethics in their work. Plagiarism is one of the most unethical phenomena and is absolutely unacceptable in any form. Authors submitting papers to Studia Universitas Babes-Bolyai Mathematica should make sure that any part of their papers is not plagiarized. Although we try our best not to publish any such paper yet if after publication any paper is found plagiarized it will be retracted from the issue of the journal by the recommendation of the editors of the journal. By submitting a manuscript to Studia Universitas Babes-Bolyai University Mathematica, authors confirm that the manuscript is their original work and that it has neither been published previously nor is currently being considered for publication elsewhere. They also make sure that the sources of any idea, method and result in the manuscript that are not their own have been properly attributed through appropriate citations. An author should not publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in more than one journal. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal constitutes unethical publishing behaviour and is unacceptable. Proper acknowledgment of the work of others must always be given. Authors should cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work. When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in his/her own published work, it is his/her obligation to promptly notify the journal editor in order to retract or correct the paper.

On all other aspects of the monitoring publications ethics and malpractice the journal strictly adheres to international standards developed by: http://publicationethics.org
